The tune we bummed was one full of the enchantrnent of our younger years - of day. and Sab- bath-school, of faces gone. other days. other scenes. "Co-cunt your bless-ings. na-a.ine them-ni one by one. co-ount your bleesinga. . . " we song. And quietly granddaugh- ter rode up on her "tryke" to lis- ten. Presently she wrinkled a neat freckled nose in a whimsical smile: "I-lash!" she chuckled "I bet I could count them. I can count a long way!" Then she beihought of the errand that had brought her. "Did you know that the line is broken? Yes. every last piece is on the ground. That pretty blanket too." "Oh dear!" we moaned "not right down?" She nodded. "Yes - and if you should want zran'daddy to help with the fixing" she added with feminine perspicacity" You'd better call him now because they are just home this minute! And will you sing that again when the line's up? I like it." "Maybe" we promised hurrying off to the task of finding James, who it seems is always retiring or self-effacing in moments of household crises.

It was a truth that "You needn't glower at me. Ellen. - I didn't do it! Your common sense should have warned you against spreading too heavily in a wind like this. Run now and bring a hammer and staple! Where will you find them? Oh, In the sheduor the pump- house or the piggery. Or no" call- ing after us "ln the garage!" It was granddaughter however. who kmew their whereabouts and car- ried them to him quickly to hasten the repairs. "And now will you sing about tcouniing your bless- ings?' " she begged when once more the sunny breeze of clay lift- ed the washed plecm, waving them like so many clean banners. In spite of momentary delays and annoyances it would be a forlorn. deserted. neglected soul who could not sing: "Count your blessings" on such lovely April days as these.

It was a gentle south wind that blew today, bearing a dark drift of wild geese with echoing calls before it and a parcel of gulls to soar and dip above the dark line of trees that guard the stream be- low the mill and river-ward. And suddenly the sun which invelgled us into a piece of gardening about iheilawn, hid himself behind a cov- ering of clouds, and the. enchant- ing silence that precedes a gen- ile rain. was spread about. if one notices. sounds linger then and one may catch echoes. .la.mes de- serted the fencing to light a heap of ends from the yard-cleaning. placed for safety on a plowed field. and the smoke-scent. was not un- pleasant. but mingled nicely with the spring fragrances about . "would you guess what I have in my hand?" granddaughter came in to ask this morning when the preparations for dinner were in progress, her hand enfolding some treasure. "A wee egg?" She shook her head. "A caterpillar?" "No." she smiled " I guess I'll have to show you. Look!" and a handful ofvfresh green grass was disclosed to our view. "Isn't it pretty?" she queried. "And don't you like the smell?" Grass. buds. earth . . . th lncense'of spring.

On rolls the season, bringing new chores to farm folks. taking away completed the results of their efforts. There is some talk now at Alderlea of getting "busy at that manure-spreading" and" at dinner at which after an absence were joined by a maid, James guessed that"'pei-haps by tomor- row. we'll turn the sheep out to their summer pasture."

Why Baby Husbands? I Reader Complains That Woman Takes All The Hard Knocks

Why should women humor and baby be treated as grown-up human and babies. should be willing to

DEAR. DOROTHY DIX: their husbands? Why shouldn't mieln beings who, if they want a home. w e share some of the cares? Why make a drudge of the wife. while the husband goes out looking for some one prettier? l-low can a WI 9 keep herself attractive when she lays awake nlghta thinking, how to

" cut down expenses and worrying about bills. I have a grand husband and sons. None better. but neith- er are they perfect, and I have had plenty of work raising the boys and overlooking my husbandf faults. So I still want to know why it is the wife: duty to take all the hard knocks and rtlllibaby the husband? E P B

.1 K ANSWER: Well. maybe your husband has done ”' I a few licks of work himself in supporting his fam- ily and perhapl you've had a fault or two yourself that he hIas,had to turn a blind eye on. Did you ever consider those pcssibilit es. Marriage isn't a slnecure for men any more than it is for wogiend. Although we never hear anything about the sacrifices that a hus any and father is called upon to make. he makes them just the same. . is mother who sobs on our breasts and demands that we mingle our I tears with hers while she tells how hard she has to work; how tied down she is by the children; how cantankerous and unreasonable her husband is. Father never mentions what he does. but we might have n sob or two to bestow on him when we think that he also tolls, day after day. for his family: that he also is tied down to his hearihsfone; that he lives in terror of his wife's nagging.

HE DOES HIS SHARE

It isn't because he is having a grand time In an office or store or factory that makes him punch the tlmeclock on the dot, sick or well. every morning. It is because the wife and children have to be kept safe and comfortable. It isn't because he prefers to spend the summer toiling in a hot office that nails him to his desk. It is be- cause the wife and children need the seashore or the mountains. It isn't because he wouldn't like to spend some of the money he makes on himself that makes him d'eny himself the luxuries he craves. It is because there is nothing left for him when the family hills are paid.

And the only thing that pays the man for all the sacrifices that marriage demands is for his wife to give him a pat on the head oc- casionally and pet him a little and tell him he is a good old dog. Also. I recommend the same treatment from-husbands to wives. A mutual admiration society makes any marriage a success.

DEAR DOROTHY DIX: Would you please tell me the require- menis necessary to be a successful small town physician's wife? 1 have eighteen months in which to prepare myself.

l)OCTOR'S GIRL

ANSWER: A doctor's wife needs all the good qualities to be a successful wife that any other woman needs. and then some. For a doctor's wife has more to do with making or marring her husband's career than the ordinary wife has.

She must be able to smile when she has to take off her hat as she is starting to the theatre or some party that she longs to go to, when her husband is summoned to a sick bed. She must be able to keep dinner waiting until it is ruined without getting peeved when her husband doesn't get home on time. She must be able not to feel herself neglected when her husband spends the few evenings he is at home in study. instead of telling her how beautiful she is.

She must put her jealousy aside and not get green-eyed over every good-looking woman patient. She must keep out of his office unless specifically invited in. She must respect his secrets and not try to worm them out of him. And she must never, never gossip about what she inadvertently learns about his patients.

She'must nxke friends for her husband. for many a woman picks out a physician because she likes hls.wlfe. and many another goes to somebody else because she thinks the doctor's wife is snooty. It is a hard life. that of being it doctor's wife. but it is a great one if you don't weaken.

DEAR MISS DIX: I have been married two weeks. I am 25 years old and she is 21. She is the only girl I ever loved. Two days ago a letter came into my hands which she had written to a cousin of hers in another state. in which she said she had married .1 good man but did not love him. Instead. she was desperately in love with another man. What shall I do? Of course. she has com. pletely and permanently destroyed my faith and confidence in her. I feel I cannot keep my self-respect if I continued to live with her and tolerate her continued infidelity.

. v E. L. J.

ANSWER. Have you considered the fact that the letter might Just be a trouble-maker's prank? .

Dont judge your wife until you have talked the whole thing over with her. If she were so desperately in love with someone else I doubt if she would have married you. Give her a chance. Talk, it

over frankly. then decide on the issue. rd . Modern Eflquelle l 3.! Roberta Lee

Still Lost

. An American visiting England for the first time. decided that it would be fun to go for a walking tour in Scotland at Christmas.

Iibr once winter was living up to its name. The snow was coming down hard, and the American was struggling along what had once been a village lane. It was not long before he was completely lost.

Fortunately. however. he came up with an old Scot.

"Say, friend." began the Amer- ican. "I guess I'm lost."

"Is theer a reward oot for ye?" asked. the Scot cautiously.

"Nope." said the American short- ly. "What's the matter "

"Weel." came the slow reply, "ye're still lost."

TWO THEOBIES THAT HAVE THIIED ADVEIBI CRITICISM

A few year! ago it seemed to be

dennitely established by clinical report: from various parts of the United states and Canada that it was unwise to remove tonails or adenoid: just before the IPPWNII of the poliomyelitls season (Auiz ust. September. October)! as so many cases of the inert crippling form (bulbar) seem to follow re- moval of tonsils at this time. Then came reports that exposed pulps of teeth should not be troll-ed or removed just before the polio sea- son. Then came reports from what secured to be as authoritative sources that removal of infected tonsils at this time did not in- crease the chances of the child's developing the bulbar paralysis type of polio. The question is now definitely settled. Removal of infected ton- sils a few weeks before the polio season does increase the of developing bulbar paralysis, it is reported by the investigators of the National Society for Preven- tion of Infantile Paralysis. These reports. published by the recog- nized organization behind preven- tion of infantile paralysis, should receive full consideration from physicians and parents.

In a recent article we quoted noted authorities as reporting that even scratches or cuts on the skin should be treated by antiseptic! W prevent tiny organism of polio from from entering the body.

Another idea has more recently weathered the storm of adverse criticism: the "focal infeciion' theory. which is that an infection starting in one part of the body (teeth. tonsils. tinuses) causes symptoms, such as rheumatic symptoms. in other parts. For the past few years. the focal infection theory of rheumatism has been at- tacked by outstanding authorities. but the focal infection theorists are able to report thousands of cases where early removal of infected teeth and tonsils has resulted in a large percentage of cures. The fact that one individual has focal in- fection and has rheumatic symp- toms and another has the same degree of infection and no rheu- matics is. of course, true; focal in- fection may not be the cause of every case of rheumatism. The individual with infection and no symptoms may he immunized against this particular infection. Like practically all diseases. how- ever, the earlier infection or other obstacles to recovery are removed. the better the chances of obtainins a cure.

Drew was working long hours that summer. He often telephonh around five that he could not get home for dinner-that Patty was to have it without him. These pm- trncted absences gave Mrs. Forres- ial more opportunities for uninter- rupted ccnferences with her daugh- ter than Patty wouldhave sought, and she was visiting expansively when one such essage came through. she raised her eyebrows questioningly.
